Estes Park

Planning a trip to Estes Park area next year. Looking at RV sites around the area. Leaning towards Lakeside KOA in Ft Collins. It's a little more expensive than most in the area but seems to have the better reviews. Any suggestions?

We just spent the past 4 days on the west side of Rocky Mountain National Park in Granby. We were going to stay in Estes Park but after a few different people recommended the west side and a place called River Run RV Resort (now owned by Sun Outdoors and called Sun Outdoors Rocky Mountain).

The place was very nice with a lot of amenities. It truly was a 5-star camping resort with a restaurant / bar, pool and hot tubs, fitness center, general store, etc. They had everything from premium RV sites to cabins and deluxe glamping cabins. You could reserve stay in one of their Airstream campers and they even had covered wagons to stay in that would be cool for kids.

It is close to a quaint town called Grand Lake as well that is very nice.

We were going to originally stay at the KOA in Estes Park but we are glad we chose Granby instead.

We have stayed there and had the same opinion, very nice, and a nice drive either through the park or to the North to Poudre Canyon and around

The old hotel is nice to have lunch at and hot springs in the area worth a visit as well

also stayed in Estes Park several times, just outside town past the NP Gates. Very windy at night and rattles the slide covers which was the primary drawback to staying there again
